ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「For centuries, astrologers have referred to the movement and positions of planets and other celestial bodies to inform readings and horoscopes. A new machine developed by Co-Star, a technology company with a buzzy astrology app, aims to provide people with astrological readings using artificial intelligence. The machine has the stature of a standing washer-dryer, with black buttons, rows of blinking lights and gauges labeled with celestial bodies — “sun,” “moon” and the eight planets — on the front of its white facade. Its screen directs users to use a knob to “ask the stars” some 100 questions. Among them: How do I get better at my job? Should I leave New York? Should I start a cult? The machine currently stands just inside the entrance to Iconic Magazines in Manhattan, where it will remain before moving to Los Angeles later this year. The machine, which is free to use, was created to promote Co-Star’s new in-app service, The Void, which starts at about $1. The service functions similarly to the machine: Users can ask open-ended questions that are not normally addressed in the app’s astrological readings and receive answers generated by A.I. using Co-Star’s database of prepared text.
